Is possession of stolen gun a felony?
Depends on what the felon was charged with.
What degree is a stolen firearm?
(in the US) The degree of the crime is determined by the value of the item stolen, and whether or not it crosses the value line into being a felony offense. There is no specific criminal charge for theft of a firearm, unless a felon (or convicted felon) happens to be the one that steals it. Then the penalty is enhanced by the fact that this is a convicted felon in possession of a firearm.
Is being in a car with a firearm a violent felony?
Maybe - maybe not. If the gun was involved in a violent felony and you are in possession of it, yes, you could be charged with that violent felony. Even being IN a car with a gun places you in, what is called, "concurrent possession" of that gun.
